Mayor Tom Chavez will host Temple City’s first-ever Walk
with the Mayor, from 1-3 p.m., Nov. 21. The walk will commence from the west side of City Hall, 5938 Kauffman Ave.
The community is invited to lace
up their walking shoes, grab a water bottle and be prepared to share
their thoughts, concerns and ideas
for making Temple City an even
better place to live. And to learn
what it feels like to walk in the
Mayor’s shoes in the process.
“There’s no better way to be with
the community than with a healthy
and fun activity,” said Mayor
Chavez. “I’m looking forward to a
big and enthusiastic turn-out.”

stops will be made at selected businesses and sights of interest.
Refreshments will be served along the way. The terrain is flat
and the pace leisurely, so you don’t need to be an athlete to keep
up with the crowd.
The goal of the walk is twofold: to get people out and
about, and for the Mayor to
learn how well City Hall is
serving them.
Adults, seniors, teens and
parents with their children are
invited. E-mail Leslie Cayton

Raising interest rate could have positive or negative effect
Dear Emmy, if the Federal Reserve
ever raises the interest rate, how will that
affect me?
By raising or lowering interest rates,
the Fed is trying to balance between economic growth and price inflation. Its primary tool to do this is through the Federal Funds Rate. That’s the interest rate
that banks use for short-term loans to
each other.
In theory, if it’s less expensive for
banks to borrow then they’ll have more
money to lend to consumers.
When we spend that borrowed
money, the economy will hopefully expand. Families will inject that money
into the economy through home, car and
other purchases. Businesses will buy new
equipment and hire new employees.
This is the growth we all hope for. Yet,
when interest rates are low, families that
save make very little money from their
savings accounts. This is one reason the
Federal Reserve is considering an inter-

est rate increase.
However, it’s believed that if economic
growth comes too quickly then the price
of things will rise as well. With this inflation, your money will not go as far as it
used to.
The Fed has held Federal Funds Rate
near zero since 2008 to stimulate economic activity by encouraging institutional lending. Some think the Fed could
stall the economy if it scares borrowers
by raising rates too quickly.

Plan today for success tomorrow: the new college saving plan
By Joe Chia
Temple City is a vibrant city
of young families who understand the importance of education, especially sending their
kids to a reputable university to
create a better life for themselves.
But too often today, young
adults are graduating with a
large student loan which is a
negative impact on beginning
their post-college life.
According to CNBC, the average student loan debt for
Master program graduates is
about $129,000. It’s no wonder
young adults cannot afford to
buy a home and start a family.
This bleak start can be avoided
by planning ahead and a Cash
Value Life Insurance Plan is a
good option worth considering.
Parents who wish to give
The Good Life

Insurance. For more information, contact

their kids the best chance to
succeed can help them start life
without student loan debt by
opening a retirement plan for
them today.
“A retirement plan for my
two-year-old?” they may ask,
“That’s crazy, isn’t it?”
Of course, kids don’t just
have education as an expense.
One day, they will grow into an
adult, want to start a family,
travel, and eventually buy their
own home. A retirement account will allow them to do
that.
The disadvantage of a College 529 plan is that it’s limited
to only funding education. Also,
the account is exposed to market risk. In 2008, when the Great
Recession hit, College 529 Plan
lost 50 percent of its investment.
A Cash Value Life Insurance
Plan does everything a College
529 can do and more. The
money inside the plan is growing tax deferred and the withdraw is tax free. Your child will
be able to take that money out
to pay for education, traveling,
and even make a deposit for a
house.
If you fund it properly, it can
pay for the entire college education and still have money for
retirement and legacy to your
heir. The downside with CV
Life insurance is you need to
give it time. But if you can do
that, your kids will live a life
without student loan. And that
is a life with a much brighter future.
Legal Report
By Tony J. Tyre, Attorney at Law
The Tyre Agency
5703 Temple City Blvd., Temple City.
For more information, phone 626-285-7033
or email [email protected].
Should I have my
Living Trust reviewed?
Would you want limited access to your assets and have to file
another tax return if your spouse predeceases you?
In the past, the IRS looked at each spouse separately for estate
(inheritance) tax purposes. As a result, most trusts were drafted as
Bypass Trusts or A-B Trusts.
Generally, when the first spouse passed, the surviving spouse
was supposed to split the couple’s assets into two trust: the “A” Trust
(for the person above ground) and the “B” Trust (for the person
below ground). The surviving spouse has full access to all assets in
the “A” Trust, but only limited access to assets in the “B” Trust.
For example, if a couple owns one house and one rental property, and the survivor put the rental property in the “B” Trust, the
survivor would have access to income from the rental.
However, the survivor may not be able to sell the rental
unless he or she has exhausted all assets in the “A” Trust.
Additionally, since a rental produces income, the
survivor would have to file two tax returns: one for the
survivor as an individual, another for the “B” Trust.
As you can see, this seems very complicated: limited
access to your assets and another tax return.
The good news: Trust law changes. Under the Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, the concept of “portability”
changed the way most trusts for married couples are
now drafted.
Now, married couples may be looked at as a unit.
Instead of splitting assets, you can elect to have your
estate looked at by the IRS when the second spouse
passes away. Additionally the 2015 estate tax exemption
for a couple with a portability election is $10.86 million. Most of my clients are not paying estate tax.
As a result, most of my clients prefer a “Probate
Avoidance Trust.” Generally, as long as one spouse is
alive, he or she controls all assets until her or she passes:
no asset splitting, no limited access to your assets, and
no extra tax return.
You should consider speaking to an attorney regarding having your A-B Trust redrafted as a Probate Avoidance Trust.

What this means to you depends on your goals. If
you’re looking for a lower-cost loan and lower prices at
the grocery store, lower interest rates may interest you.
But if you hope to earn more money held in savings, a
slightly high interest rate wouldn’t hurt.

Temple City High yearbook
seeks advertisers, sponsors
Every year Temple City High School’s
yearbook staff compiles all of the
school’s events and memories into one
dazzling book. The main goal of the
staff ’s talented designers, writers, and
photographers is to create a perfect book
that tells the unique story of our student body.
The annual yearbook is both a way
for the student staffers to express their
creative voice and a great way for alumni
to reconnect with their school memories.
The Editors-in-Chief enlighten each
year’s staffers with their knowledge and
expertise resulting in a community of
students teaching, learning, and pushing each other to do their best work. “I
love working with people,” said Senior
Jonathan Ng, “And being part of a team.”
For members of the community who
would like to support this year’s year-
book staff, consider purchasing an ad.
Different rates are available for business
and student ads, but both will be seen
by the more than 1,000 students who buy
a yearbook (and their families). In recent
years, local businesses such as Flower
Mart. 888 Seafood Restaurant, and
Quickly have supported the yearbook
with ads.
For business ads, two full pages costs
$700, a full page costs $400, a half page

Temple City residents use HERO program
to implement water efficiency at home
Financing helps residents install artificial turf, drought-tolerant landscaping,
water-efficient appliances, solar panels,
HVAC, energy-saving windows and more;
payments made through property taxes,
interest is tax-deductible
Temple City homeowners are conserving water and saving money, by using
HERO PACE financing to implement
long-term efficiency renovations on their
properties.
HERO Property Assessed Clean Energy
(PACE) financing enables homeowners to
make energy- and water-efficiency improvements and pay for them over time
through their property tax bill. Interest is
tax-deductible, and homeowners see immediate savings on utility bills.
The City of Temple City launched
HERO in the first wave of Los Angeles
municipalities, in May of last year. Efficiency renovations have been completed
on 25 residences to date, with $650,000 of
investments in long-term water and energy
efficiency.
Temple City is one of 87 communities
in Los Angeles County to partner with the
HERO Program and bring this innovative
financing option to local residents.
The county has realized $210 million in
economic stimulus from the resulting increase in home renovation activity, including over $1 million in Temple City.
As California’s drought continues, eligible retrofits give homeowners a fast, affordable way to lower their water bill and
conserve a desperately-needed resource.
HERO finances water-saving products
such as high-efficiency toilets, faucets and
shower heads; drip irrigation systems; rainwater catchment systems; gray water systems; and artificial turf and drought-tolerant landscaping.
The program provides financing for
energy-saving products well.
Los Angeles County has a state-imposed
mandate to reduce residential water use by
28% from 2013 levels. HERO financing is
one important tool for municipalities to
wield in working toward this goal. For

www.heroprogram.com/TempleCity.

Making
Dentistry Fun
Breast cancer awareness continues
from October throughout the year
So October was National
Breast Cancer Awareness
Month and awareness and
laughter just might be the best
medicine money doesn’t have
to buy.
Each month, one of our
team members selects a theme
in the form of a cause. And a
cause can easily fit into the
space left by the family and
friends we’ll never stop missing.
But causes are also a fit for
the hearts of loved ones who
inspire with daily challenges
met with courage, determination, and faith.
It wasn’t surprising that
Dental Assistant Extraordinaire Kolleen chose to play
big. Kolleen went after a ma-
jor threat to moms, wives, and
daughters everywhere. One in
eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer; it’s
the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and
the second leading cause of
death.
In the U.S. in 2015, 220,000
women will be diagnosed with
breast cancer and more than
40,000 will die (more than
2,000 men will also be diagnosed with more than 400
deaths.)
Early detection and consistent examinations are the
products of awareness. And it
helps to think “Pink.”
For the last 13 years,
Kolleen has graced us with
authentic thoughtfulness and
Home prices are up, but many homeowners who have considered selling are deciding not to because they are caught in an
affordability squeeze that is compounded by a lack of inventory.
According to California Association of Realtors 2015 Survey
of California Homeowners:
• While 35% of homeowners have considered selling their home
in the past year, 64% of that share is reluctant to sell because they
are finding that they can’t afford the home they really want.
• And 59% of homeowners have not seriously considered selling
their home in the past year.
• More than half, 60% of those who haven’t considered selling
say their current home will be their retirement residence. This figure goes up to 70% for those who have been in their home for 15
years or more.
What they’re looking for
• 56% of homeowners who have considered selling said they desire a larger home.
Seven things to know before
putting your home up for sale
A new report has just been released which reveals seven
costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling
their home, and a nine-step system that can help them sell
their home fast and for the most amount of money.
This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways
of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today’s market.
The fact is that three-fourths of home sellers don’t get what
they want for their homes and become disillusioned and
worse - they become financially disadvantaged when they
put their homes on the market. As this report reveals, most
home sellers make seven deadly mistakes that cost them literally thousands of dollars.
The good news is that every mistake is entirely preventable. To address this issue, industry insiders have prepared
this free report entitled The 9 Step System to Get Your Home
Sold Fast and For Top Dollar.
To get a FREE special report now to find out how to get the
most money for your home, phone toll-free 1-888-300-4632
and enter 3000. Home sellers can phone any time, 24 hours
a day, seven days a week.
